Allison shared her research findings in a room full of graduate students, faculty, family and colleagues (with another 18 on Zoom virtually attending). Allison&#8217;s research explored how we most effectively communicate science to prospective graduate students &#8211; with the intent of bringing the best and brightest to our land grant universities to study and solve the world&#8217;s greatest agricultural and environmental challenges. Her three article dissertation dove deep in to audience segmentation with a focus on differences based on cultural dimensions while capitalizing on what we know about how people use information sources to gratify specific needs.
